Official rulings
Three official rulings apply to Scavenger Grounds, newest first.
- If a Desert has an ability with a cost of "Sacrifice a Desert," you can sacrifice that Desert to pay the cost for its own ability.
- The sacrificed Desert will be in your graveyard to be exiled by the last ability of Scavenger Grounds.
- Desert is a land subtype with no special meaning. It doesn't grant the land an intrinsic mana ability. Other cards may care about which lands are Deserts.
